Mt. Kailash Mansarovar

Trip Facts

Trip Duration: 13 days

Overview

Kailash Mansarovar Yatra is a spiritual quest in Himalayas by tourists seeking religious blessings of almighty. Although there are many mythological beliefs about the sacred mount Kailash but the most popular is its association with trinity lord Shiva. The 14 day tour itinerary has customized to take you to the holy abode of lord Shiva where he sits in a perpetual meditation. The journey also includes visit to holy Mansarovar Lake which evokes an impalpable serenity in the minds of pilgrims.

A Shiva-linga shaped Mt. Kailash from the Northern Face. For the Hindus Mount Kailash is the earthly manifestation of Mt. Meru , their spiritual center of the universe, described as a fantastic ‘world pillar’ 84,000 miles high, around which all else revolves, its roots in the lowest hell and its summit kissing the heavens. On the top lives their most revered God, Shiva, and his consort Parvati.

For the Jains, an Indian religious group, Kailash is the site where their first prophet achieved enlightenment. For the older, more ancient religion of Bon, it is the site where its founder Shanrab is said to have descended from heaven. It was formerly the spiritual center of Zhang Zung, the ancient Bon Empire that once included all of western Tibet . Bon people walk around the mountain in a counter clockwise manner, unlike the other religions.

Over the centuries pilgrims have constantly journeyed immense distances to achieve enlightenment or cleanse themselves of sin, braving enormous distances, particularly harsh weather and bandit attacks.
